Which outcome occurs when a progressive cavity pump rotor experiences excessive eccentric motion?

A)Flow pulsations and pressure spikes
B)Reduced priming performance
C)Increased energy efficiency
D)Decreased viscosity sensitivity

💡 Explanation

When a progressive cavity pump rotor has excessive eccentric motion, increased shear stresses occur because the rotor rotates unevenly within the stator's shape, leading to pulsating flow. Therefore, flow pulsations and pressure spikes result, as opposed to priming, efficiency or viscosity, which depend on different aspects.
